It sounds like either a critter has crawled around the unit and used it for sharpening its fangs or you had a safty switch go bad, Most newer tractors have switches on the seat and elsewhere on the tractor to make sure the mower will not start unless all safty is followed this includes sitting in the seat, and clutch pushed it or brake held on. Hope This Helps Don
